An exercise machine resistance adjustment system for providing an exerciser the ability to immediately adjust the resistance force by changing their body position on the movable carriage or end platforms. The exercise machine resistance adjustment system generally includes a frame, a carriage movably positioned on the frame, a spring connected to the carriage to apply a biasing force to the carriage, one or more left projections within the carriage adapted for a left hand of an exerciser to grasp, and one or more right projections within the carriage adapted for a right hand of an exerciser to grasp. The exerciser is able to efficiently adjust the amount of resistance force applied to the carriage by repositioning their hands (or feet) from a first set of projections at a first distance to a second set of projections at a second distance from the first end of the exercise machine.

A resistance band system including a frame-assembly, a plurality of linear-straps, and a plurality of removable-D-rings. The frame-assembly, the plurality of linear-straps and plurality of removable-D-rings of the resistance band system are structured and arranged in combination to allow a user to affix a linear-resistance-band to the resistance band system to provide an overall exercise system which provides the user with a plurality of locations to affix the linear-resistance-band to the resistance band system to allow a highly flexible and diverse exercise system to the user. The frame-assembly includes an upper-frame, a lower-frame, and a u-member. The upper-frame includes two primary-members, two inbars, two forward-bars, and a crown-bar. The lower-frame includes two first-members, two downbars, and down-cross-member. The u-member comp includes rises a body, two legs, and two t-couplers, with u-member rotatably coupled to the lower-frame via the two t-couplers.

A pull-up fitness exercise machine with a grip bar hanging frame structure for a hang-up training includes a support board. The support board is automatically lifted upward by a pushing unit for the user to take an expected pull-up exercise. The pushing unit is activated by an electric adjusting element in a mechanism box unit for a proper adjustment of the pushing force. The support board is provided with a hand-operated switch unit and a foot-operated switch unit for cooperating with their corresponding barbed hooks respectively, such that the support board can always be kept at a relatively low position in the case that the foot-operated switch group is not stressed. A hanging frame having a plurality of corresponding hanging bars is positioned on both top ends of the front frame for providing a random hanging of a grip bar with a safety sling.

The present invention is directed, in part, to a system and methods for combining newly designed cardiovascular equipment with the added features of an upper body weight training regimen in order to provide a user a full body workout, cardiovascular exercise and weight training simultaneously. The invention does so by employing either a weight tray apparatus configured to newly designed cardiovascular equipment or machine or through the use of an adjustable weight training apparatus combined with the newly designed cardiovascular equipment or machine. More specifically, the present invention relates to a system and methods for combining newly designed cardiovascular equipment including stationary and recumbent bikes, elliptical machines, treadmills and stair steppers, with a tray apparatus that allows a user to employ free weights. The invention further relates to a system and methods for combining newly designed cardiovascular equipment including stationary and recumbent bikes, elliptical machines, treadmills and stair steppers that are configured with an adjustable weight training apparatus that allows a user to build upper body muscle groups simultaneously with cardiovascular exercise, in effect, providing a full body workout.

The present disclosure relates to an exercise apparatus. More particularly, the present disclosure relates to an apparatus operated by hand which comprises a base upon which extend frame supports for the seat unit, resistance unit, crank unit, and guide unit. Embodiments provide for a crank to be mounted to the base and frame and wherein the crank is connected to first and second actuating rods via a coupling. The actuating rods are slidably connected at one end via a guide pivotally mounted to the frame and have a free end for a user to grip.

A four-bar linkage assembly exercise station that can be adjusted to various configurations to create various exercise motions having at least one adjustable operational pivot that is movable prior to operation of the machine and stationary during operation of the machine and at least one stationary adjustment pivot operatively connected to the at least one adjustable operational pivot. The stationary adjustment pivot is also operatively connected to an adjusting and latching component or assembly that can be engaged by a user prior to operation of the machine to adjust the four-bar linkage assembly exercise station to a desired configuration to create a unique exercise motion and secure the desired configuration of the adjustable four-bar linkage assembly.

The invention is embodied in an exercise system that can allow its user to counterbalance the effects associated with a predominantly sedentary lifestyle though a fitness device that comprises a combination of (a) supporting the lower body in a manner that permits a user's upper body to act as a third class lever with the user's hips operating as fulcrum and (b) engaging in resistance exercises with the upper body in a horizontal position, unsupported above the greater trochanter.

A strength training equipment, comprising: a torque producing mechanism, a weight pulling mechanism, a controller, and an electronic instrument; wherein the torque producing mechanism is composed of the deceleration machine and the winding wheel connected to each other on the same shaft, a belt is winding on the winding wheel, and the free end of the belt is connected to the force applied unit of the weight pulling mechanism; a movement path sensor installed on the winding wheel, and an angle sensor installed at the lateral side of the guide pulley of the weight pulling mechanism; whereby inputting required torque value by electronic instrument, the servo control unit will drive the motor to produce torque, the user will have to against the torque while applying force to the extension element and the swinging element, so achieve the effect of strength training.

An isometric, dynamic isotonic concentric and dynamic isotonic eccentric motorized guidance exercise apparatus for human muscle development is provided. The exercise apparatus comprising a frame, an electric motor, the motor including an output shaft and the motor secured to the apparatus at the frame, a drive guidance assembly, the drive guidance assembly secured to the apparatus at the frame and connected to the output shaft of the motor; at least one tactile feedback interface member, the at least one tactile feedback interface member secured to the drive guidance assembly; a resistance means, the resistance means secured to a human body, the human body positioned at the at least one tactile feedback interface member and wherein energizing the motor actuates the drive guidance assembly, the drive guidance assembly induces a motion in the at least one tactile feedback interface member, the human body engages the at least one tactile feedback interface member and the human body actuates the resistance means.

An exercise machine resistance adjustment system for providing an exerciser the ability to immediately adjust the resistance force by changing their body position on the movable carriage or end platforms. The exercise machine resistance adjustment system generally includes a frame, a carriage movably positioned on the frame, a spring connected to the carriage to apply a biasing force to the carriage, one or more left projections within the carriage adapted for a left hand of an exerciser to grasp, and one or more right projections within the carriage adapted for a right hand of an exerciser to grasp. The exerciser is able to efficiently adjust the amount of resistance force applied to the carriage by repositioning their hands (or feet) from a first set of projections at a first distance to a second set of projections at a second distance from the first end of the exercise machine.
